This huge gig at the Brits caps off a stellar month for Whitehall, who has just received a re-commission for his Sky action-adventure sitcom Bounty Hunters. He'll also surely be tapping into the Brits' storied history when he plays T Rex's Marc Bolan opposite Luke Treadaway's David Bowie in the next round of Urban Myths.

The nominations for next year's Brit Awards will be revealed during the BRITs Nominations Launch on Saturday, January 13, but we already know that Jorja Smith will follow in the footsteps of Adele, Florence and the Machine, Sam Smith and Rag'n'Bone Man as the recipient of the Critics' Choice Award.

"I cannot believe it, it's been an unforgettable 2017 during which I've fulfilled so many of my dreams and this is such a special way to end the year... and to be part of an all-female shortlist alongside Mabel and Stefflon Don, who've both had incredible 2017s, makes it even better," Jorja Smith said.

"There's lots more to come in 2018 from all of us and I will do my best to make it another memorable year!"
